Transmission apparatus, reception apparatus, communication system, and recording medium

Abstract

A transmission apparatus configured to transmit image data to a reception apparatus through a network, in which a setting value for generating captured data and a setting value for generating image data by an encoding unit are updated according to reception of a command that sets the setting value for generating the captured data by the image capturing unit. When the setting value for generating the captured data is updated according to the received command, notification is performed through the network regardless of a restart process is performed.

What is claimed is: 
     
       1. A control apparatus configured to transmit a command to an image capturing device including an encoding unit which is configured to generate image data by encoding captured data generated by an image capturing unit, the control apparatus comprising:
 a display control unit configured to display, in a display unit, a graphical user interface for setting a first set value which is for generating the captured data by the image capturing unit and a graphical user interface for setting a second set value which is for generating the image data by the encoding unit; 
 a transmission unit capable of transmitting, to the image capturing device, a first command for changing the first set value and a second command for changing the second set value; and 
 a receiving unit configured to receive, in a case where, in response to one command of either the first command or the second command being executed in the image capturing device, a set value corresponding to the other command of the either the first command or the second command is changed in the image capturing device, information indicating the set value corresponding to the other command in the image capturing device from the image capturing device, 
 wherein the display control unit changes a content of a graphical user interface for setting the set value corresponding to the other command, based on the information, received by the receiving unit, indicating the set value corresponding to the other command. 
 
     
     
       2. The control apparatus according to  claim 1 , wherein the receiving unit receives, in a case where the one command is executed in the image capturing device, information indicating a set value corresponding to the one command in the image capturing device from the image capturing device, and
 wherein the display control unit changes a content of a graphical user interface for setting the set value corresponding to the one command, based on the information, received by the receiving unit, indicating the set value corresponding to the one command. 
 
     
     
       3. The control apparatus according to  claim 1 , wherein the one command is the first command and the other command is the second command. 
     
     
       4. The control apparatus according to  claim 1 , wherein the setting value is at least either one of resolution and a frame rate. 
     
     
       5. The control apparatus according to  claim 1 , wherein the receiving unit receives, in response to a predetermined restart process being executed in the image capturing device, the information indicating the set value corresponding to the other command from the image capturing device. 
     
     
       6. The control apparatus according to  claim 1 , wherein the receiving unit receives notification transmitted in response to the one command being executed by the image capturing device, and receives, in response to receiving the notification, the information indicating the set value corresponding to the other command from the image capturing device. 
     
     
       7. The control apparatus according to  claim 6 , wherein the notification indicates that the set value corresponding to the other command has been changed. 
     
     
       8. The control apparatus according to  claim 1 , wherein the receiving unit receives, in a case where, in response to the one command being transmitted to the image capturing device by the transmission unit and being executed in the image capturing device, the set value corresponding to the other command is changed in the image capturing device, the information indicating the set value corresponding to the other command in the image capturing device from the image capturing device. 
     
     
       9. A control method configured to transmit a command to an image capturing device including an encoding unit which is configured to generate image data by encoding captured data generated by an image capturing unit, the method comprising:
 displaying, in a display unit, a graphical user interface for setting a first set value which is for generating the captured data by the image capturing unit and a graphical user interface for setting a second set value which is for generating the image data by the encoding unit; 
 transmitting, to the image capturing device, a first command for changing the first set value and a second command for changing the second set value; and 
 receiving, in a case where, in response to one command of either the first command or the second command being executed in the image capturing device, a set value corresponding to the other command of the either the first command or the second command is changed in the image capturing device, information indicating the set value corresponding to the other command in the image capturing device from the image capturing device, 
 wherein the display control unit changes a content of a graphical user interface for setting the set value corresponding to the other command, based on the information, received, indicating the set value corresponding to the other command. 
 
     
     
       10. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing a program for causing a computer to execute a control method configured to transmit a command to an image capturing device including an encoding unit which is configured to generate image data by encoding captured data generated by an image capturing unit, the method comprising:
 displaying, in a display unit, a graphical user interface for setting a first set value which is for generating the captured data by the image capturing unit and a graphical user interface for setting a second set value which is for generating the image data by the encoding unit; 
 transmitting, to the image capturing device, a first command for changing the first set value and a second command for changing the second set value; and 
 receiving, in a case where, in response to one command of either the first command or the second command being executed in the image capturing device, a set value corresponding to the other command of the either the first command or the second command is changed in the image capturing device, information indicating the set value corresponding to the other command in the image capturing device from the image capturing device, 
 wherein the display control unit changes a content of a graphical user interface for setting the set value corresponding to the other command, based on the information, received, indicating the set value corresponding to the other command.
